Adulting #0: An epic evening at Lambert House: first trans group with every seat filled and then some, followed by two hours of database-cum-GUI* deployment. I'm just hoping that the other volunteers don't hate me for the sudden expansion of the GUI, and that the house's funding agencies are appeased by the data we collect. We, especially the director & I, really do make a good faith effort, and the director says we're doing a much better job than agencies with bigger, looser budgets.
Adulting #1: Forgot to sign check to Dr. Kidshrink. Resent.
Adulting #2: Months ago I ordered two Emerald City Comicon badges for 3/3 before I realized that that's also the day of Sydney's Mardi Gras parade. My son said he'd be going with Ex's beau Mr. Right Now, but failed to consult him, which is typical of the Wendling. Mr. Right Now declined the offer, but his daughter, who isn't much younger than my son and has known him for years and is a fellow comics fan, might not. I confess to thinking it would be really, really nice if the Wendling and Miss Right Now were friends. My son needs them, and I'm not even sure he knows that.
Adulting #3: The gummint says I should be getting my tax refund within a week, right when I need it. Go me!
Adulting #4: The embarrassing, time-consuming slog of learning end-to-end testing for a big feature that's new to me. I've almost got something important out the door, and another team is already trying to get a piece of me.
"Adulting" #5: Wearing my birthday boots to work with a knee-length skirt. Because I'm a grownup and I can do that.
ETA: #4 is now shipped, baybee.
*Because in Microsoft Access, they're joined at the hip, and about as wieldy as conjoined twins.
